In an earlier recent online altercation, Nicki Minaj defended fellow rapper Lil Wayne after a user, Tori Wan Kenabo, criticized Wayne’s performance at the Super Bowl halftime show.
The user claimed that Lil Wayne did not represent the art of rap to its fullest extent.
Minaj fiercely defended Wayne, writing, “God will punish you. Mark my words. The man that has not only pushed his pen the hardest but gave the game more than 1 hip hop ICON as well on his watch? Represent the RAP game?!?!! The best RAPPER don’t represent the RAP GAME well enough for you? Black ppl. Wow. If this don’t hurt your heart to read, it will one day.”
She continued, “Look at how our legends keep being treated after they’ve given so much to us. Who are you?!!!! You GOD?!?!!!!! Judgmental swine DELETE!!!!!!! lol you will regret tweeting this. Life is funny that way. Don’t you dare turn your nose up at Lil Wayne, you dick munchin’ bozo.”
Nicki’s responses quickly went viral, prompting further reactions from netizens, especially her Nigerian fans, who had a field day with her reference to Nigerian culture.
One user, @letter_to_Jack, joked, “I’ve always told people around that I know you down to your family house, that your real name is Nike OluwaloNimi ọmọ Ajiun (Nicki Minaj for short) and we grew up together in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, but dem dey always doubt me. Today, I’m justified. Naija to the world.”
